[QUOTE="blisters, post: 336237, member: 4992"] The problem with the end of the sluice in the water in your situation is that the water through the sluice is faster than the water out of it so the sluice end fills with slow water and in turn slows the flow and the sluice stops working efficiently. If the stream is running as fast outside the sluice then you probably won't have as much of a problem if any as the water through the sluice can exit without slowing down. In your situation with the exit in slow water lifting the end out of the water allows for the water to drain at nearly the same velocity as it entered the sluice. Jon [/QUOTE]
